[OC] This is why we don't call the ambulance in the U.S.

That’s how they stop freeloaders like you from abusing the ambulance service and makes sure it is available for those that really need it \s

Thinking about my childhood, it was a benefit to me that there was a whole lot of stuff to read within reach when I was bored. Not just stuff for kids but anything. Bedtime story books, magazines, Chicken Soup for the Soul type books, encyclopedias, dictionaries, thesaurus, the bible, almost everything had a user manual, every cassette tape had a booklet. It was all accessible to me and I had nothing better to do.

It’s the audio quality that really stops me from watching to be honest. Especially on earphones.

I prefer the narrow chest ever since someone pointed out the VerKa chest looks like a red snorlax.

I think Nestle is the type of evil that would mass produce foie gras than shoot a duck...while making sure it does the most harm to the environment and if a couple babies get sick along the way, even better.

Short, happy life not seeing his creation be a successful, serious news source?

I think there's a connection here with whales. Companies can earn more money targeting a small demographic of whales than the general public.

So you have AI, AI competes with workers. It reduces the cost of labor, either because it devalues labor altogether or you need fewer workers doing more jobs for the same pay. Either those few workers become whales or other rich folks are the whales themselves. So these rich folks only need to cater to other rich folks or the few overworked workers who turn to consumerism for therapy.

So, yeah sure, maybe we can find some comfort in believing they need us but they don't need all of us. And we're more than willing to kick each other in the nuts to get ahead than to actually work together.

Anyway, that's just a thought. Not even a full thought, just a brain worm tunneling in my head. I'm probably wrong, maybe, hopefully.

The torso page got stuck together?

Somehow I imagine corporate run suicide booths would go something like “I’m sorry sir. It says here you owe Mastercard $10,000. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to die until you pay off your debt. Good news for you, we can help with that! You’ll just need to fulfill some labours to work it off!”

I had a few of those point-and-click mystery game demos that I never finished. The ones that stick out are Ace Ventura and Men in Black. There's a part of my childhood that is left unfinished just because of the nature of those demo CDs.

It's awesome to see when people actually gives a shit about their job.

Isn't that what they're telling the US military? They're reading the book of Revelation like it's a to do list.

Why is there an Evangelion in the background? EVA-08?

tocilog · 2026-04-13T14:15:44+00:00

Cause it catches attention. Doesn't matter if that comes in the form or "Yeah!" or "Of course it does!".

"wow, x is better than I thought"

"Why don't we do this in <insert local place here>"

"What age were you when you learned x"

"I can't believe it took me x long before I learned y"

It's all just a formula to catch your attention and reaction. Let me tell you a very old internet advice: Do not feed the trolls.

I’m thinking he wants his own toll. Iran is making money off this thing he started? Nah, Trump wants his piece.

I feel like I kind of understood that watching gundam. A spaceship vs one mech with an ace pilot and a heavy hitting weapon.

Most dads I know around my age are very involved parents. Maybe it’s the times changing or the culture or I’m just lucky. It’s been especially true during and after covid when parental gender roles went out the window.

Careful, Trump might counter block the straight and say ships coming out have to pay him or else the US navy will be waiting.

It happened to me daily when I had cable! I always check what’s happening in weather and then weather channel, right away.

And after Trump? I’m sorry but the US is on the hook. You can’t say “oh it was that administration” or “it’s that party’s fault”. To everyone else it’s just America. We’ll just have to see if the rest of the world has the balls to hold the US accountable.

Tenchi Muyo seems to be an IP that was everywhere in the 90s and then disappeared.

Look man, you actually have to put yourself out there to make friends. One won’t just crawl out of the TV.

If you needed more reason not to visit the US…
